A Lou Twofer?!?!

Taylorea

Lou Lou Snapple Snapple!!!

Elise

A-clue-clue, snapple snapple! Keen to hear Erika’s insights for both Ep 1 & 2. Loving the series!

Warlock

The chess idea 💡 slaps, keep cooking it

Elise

As someone who works with children age 5-12 kiddo = skibidi is a hilarious equivalation 🤣

The Wizard Sanctuary

Another great game to turn into an rpg would be the card game Love Letter. I’ve always thought the lore for that game is so evocative, and there’s a lot of room for a story in there. Plus, it’s simple enough that there’s plenty of room for fleshing out the different characters and how they interact with the PC’s

firozah.com

might i suggest for the intro: a hoo-hoo done it?

Sea Moose

I will say I’m out on Freddy as a POI. Call him a Fred Herring.

hewhocutsdown

Hnefatafl would be the game to try. It's like chess but asymmetric, the king trying to escape an ambush.

Michelle Spurgeon

Sad face, going through D20 and haven't got to Burrow's End yet

Elijah Peters

This episode brought to you by S.....

Andrew Stallworth

We grew up playing Ludo but called it "Marbles" (sensational✨️) I didn't know what ludo was until clubhouse games on the switch

Sea Moose

Also thank you Aabria for the shoutout to Lou putting everything into that argument with Comfrey. IT WAS SO FUCKING GOOD.

clara

Oooh yes i love Love Letter

Cait Batchelor

Aabrias bear was amazing and I love him

Cait Batchelor

Also just extra love for Lou! Thinking about you lots and hope life is as easy as it can be

Pyrohydriscence

Back in 1999 I would play chess in a coffee shop with my boyfriend, get bored and start performing little dramas with the fallen pieces. Many Romeo and Juliet style romances.

Bor

Lou hosting for the first time! never gonna happen again

ChosenOfAeterna

Call me crazy, I want a fully role played game of Battleship 😤

lil guy

I won't BEAKlive what they are saying

Duchess

Aabria really gave new meaning to the term 'all-purpose flour'.

Pyrohydriscence

When the bird poem came up I immediately started scribbling it down on the back of an envelope frantically trying to figure it out. I was fully into a word search style grid when the answer came up.

Amber

Clue Clue Grackle Grackle!!! (Keeping with the bird-pun theme)

Obsequious Diphthong

That was exactly what I came on here to say, so kudos to you!

The Wizard Seek

The cut off at the end with "brought to you by sn-" sent me 😂😂

Katie

I was unreasonably excited to hear Lou’s voice first 🤭 yay host Lou!

Lenora Ealy

They could play mouse trap

DaphneDawn

“Chess would be Wild!” Ha oh my god that would end bloodlines

Chase!

Calling it now. This was an attempt to fake murder Bodie but he got shot through the wall onto a secret passage. On the desk is a fake Bodie.

Salmaan Rashiq

Honeslty even with what was talked about there’s SO MUCH for you to still experience and discover in that show, sorry you had some of it spoiled tho.

Salmaan Rashiq

They could make a movie out of that…

ChosenOfAeterna

Ooh, and they should cast Rihanna in it, wouldn’t that be funny? 😂

Josh Neff

"I was ready to be Black Willy Wonka." And that's when I was paralyzed with laughter.

Emma Henson

Burrows End is one of my favorite comfort shows!

Elizabeth E

STRATEGO RPG mini 🙏🙏🙏

rosa bronks

Just as an aside Ive been watching and rewatching the edit of Lou yelling at Comfry set to Nobody's Soldier.

Jonah Briggs

I just finished burrows end last week! Such a fantastic season

mars

Literally the dream. There's so much dramatic and emotional potential around hidden identities and the horrors of war. Ugh.

Tournesol

if this wasn't sarcasm, they did in 2012! if it is sarcasm, then :P

ChosenOfAeterna

It was sarcasm for sure 😂 I just showed my son that movie for the first time yesterday!

The Wizard Syndicate

I need a rotating cast of hosts that sound suspiciously like Lou. He did so good!

Maria

Erika gets me exactly cause my family had a clue set where the pieces were mini character models and I would play with them as dolls

CarpeBootium

I want Lou to do Black Willy Wonka so badly now! Those Oompa Loompa songs will be off the chain!!!

Alec

I'm screaming crying and begging for y'all to roleplay Betrayal At The House On The Hill

C. A. Whyse

Wait, how did Lou get back from Panama so fast? Did Brennan take his place out there?

Artificer _

My board game that has a lot of story telling potential of choice is root because its literally a war game with different factions that all have fun implications. There is an rpg of root but you can only be a vagabond and like. No dude i dont want to be a little scamp playing all sides of a conflict and dungeon delving i want to be a titan of industry engaging in devious cat and mouse (but they are literally a cat and a mouse) yuri with a megalomaniacal rat king. Is that so much to ask

The Wizard Spring

It really should be “grackle grackle” for the bird theme

Nessa_Vives

Not Lou doing his day job by announcing the pod members.

MunchMan

To be fair, monopoly is not supposed to be a fun game

Nessa_Vives

Ty Aabria for praising Lou's masterful performance in CloHo

Savannah Johnson

PLEASE PLAY A FAMOUS CHESS GAME it sounds so good please

CarpeBootium

Good job Taylor! Nope, not getting sued today! Erika…good luck.

brainrockets

It lives in my brain rent free right now. So fucking good.

Josiah Latimer

Especially if they could get their hands on a legacy set (ik that’s a big time commitment but oh it would be so sick I love legacy games sm)

Rachel

I love that the way to get Lou on the show was just to let him host

Nick Lerche

A clue clue , whack'em whack'em

Sean Privett

LOU WILSON?? ON A SECOND EPISODE TALKBACK?? Who is this imposter? What have you done to him on his pilgrimage around Panama?

Alyssa

1920s ➡️ Now Kiddo ➡️ skibidi a toe in both pots ➡️ labubu Example Sentences ✍️ 1920s: All the kiddos in my kid’s class have a toe in both pots and that perspective taking makes them the bee’s knees! ⬇️ Now: All the skibidis in my kid’s class have a labubu and we stan that vibe check, no cap. It’s giving low-key sigma

Garden Arcanist

Because this is the talk back and not the series, I'll post my wild speculation here in case it's a spoiler. I think Mr.Green was in a relationship with Mr.Body. Mr.Body is faking his death and it was all his idea. Mr.Green was trying to give Body an out saying you don't have to go through with this, get married, have a normal life. Body was saying no we're doing it. He tried to make amends with the talented women he wronged the only way he knew how, stupidly. In the end they'll run off together to parts unknown once the legalities are cleared.

Nova

I was trying to also think of something for crackle crackle and was DELIGHTED when my brain spit out Snapple Snapple seconds before Erika also landed there.

Laurology

A clue-clue, marple-marple?

D0C.0PP

A clue clue Factoid factoid

MN-UL

A clue clue, grackle grackle. Birbs for the win

MN-UL

Ha I just wrote the exact same! Birds of a feather

SarahZee

You can change the game to make it commercial, but the Tedium never ever disappears.

SarahZee

I’m begging for a subtle Wizard of Oz joke to Ruby Shu. “Just click your heels together three times. There’s no place like home.” Yes, it’s anachronistic, but why waste a perfectly teed up joke.

abardnamedkate

A clue clue, rabble rabble. Or Stab-le stab-le?

Fig Munson

A clue clue, group of grackles!

DarkHeroZark

A clue clue Scrabble Scrabble

The Wizard Sea

Not y'all talking about my favorite Jamaican board game 13 minutes into stream (ludo/ludi)

Jo Michelle

You all clearly didn’t play Clue the “right way.” …. Or maybe that was me and my siblings. Probably that was us. Considering Clue games became an arms race of ever-more complicated spreadsheets of who said what when. Eventually, we all got to where we’d be able to narrow in on what card was handed between two players three rounds back, based on their earlier and later instances of having to say “no clue.” So every action taken by a player was carefully noted by all, using our own systems of meticulous record keeping. And then checked against previous actions. 😆 If you have a headache imagining it. Yes. That’s the correct reaction to how we “played” that game. 😂

Nye-Low

Scarlet is the secret Budweiser heir sabotaging Project White Claw! This was an absolute joy 🤣

Bat-Fran

Aabria casually throwing in Lou's EXCEPTIONAL performance in cloudward ho right at the end there too. Yes, we do not deserve the incredible acting skills this man has and the amazing trust you guys have together to allow him to do these amazingly daring character choices but I am SO glad we do and get to praise you endlessly for it.

Jayfeather

having Lou host the show and, frankly, talk this much, sounds wild lmao. doesn’t feel correct

Mal

A clue clue cackle cackle!

tylor govero

It's funny they brought up a chess thing because I've actually thought of a world where people are born with or without the chess symbol on their hand and based on the symbol you get a special ability that corresponds with the move. I don't remember them all but I remember the idea for the king and queen was if your born with that symbol you're automatically assigned that role, so say someone born with the king tattoo then when that king dies the next person with that tattoo (I had it so long and queen were limited) becomes the next king and when at war the kings ability was that he'd be able to see the outline of the battle field (outlines like a chess board) and could manually controll his units.

The Wizard Salsa

A clue clue crack-it crack-it!! 🙂‍↕️

C. A. Whyse

Oh, this is a take I hadn't considered! Last time Brennan was gone, he went to save Real Lou-- you think that's what's happening now? And who is after Real Lou so zealously?!

Grif Stian

A clue clue raised hackles!

Sara

At 48:30, can anyone please tell me what word Erika says where Aabria speaks over them? Erika says "there is nothing frivolous about-" and Aabria says "Oh my god!" What word did Erika say?

Josh H

She’s literally the witch of the witch, the Wizard and the wild one and she couldn’t think of “a clue, clue, cackle, cackle!”?

Josh H

Joy. Aabria shouts it out later in the episode

Hayley Aronson

First, I absolutely love Hint! and I cannot wait for the next episode!!! Second, I think about that bear map from Burrow's End at least twice a week. It has become my Roman Empire and I'm not sad about it.

ALTree

A clue-clue, razzle dazzle!

Morgana Evenstar

Lou's chess idea is totally viable. The LEGO Chess computer game had special cutscenes for every type of piece taking every other type of piece in different comic scenarios/combats with Looney Tune energy.

Catherine S Wall

A Clue Clue, grackle grackle? Because of the birds?

Anna Barnes

A Clue Clue Cracked It Cracked It

Josh

A clue, a clue, I found it, I found it!

Rumi Tuesday

Punctuating the story beats with the chess move would be so cool - then the listener could map the moves along with the podcast

Madeline Salter

Haha I came to the comments to ask the same thing. Thank you!

Deidra

I would one thousand percent listen to a storytelling of a chess game!

Big D-Meanor

At the end can we have a “wrong answers only” where it’s a supercut of all the PCs guessing wildly wrong?

Joelith Hamilton

Similar to a role playing game based on chess you could play Shogi, Japanese chess. The main difference in Shogi is a player can redeploy captured enemy pieces instead being removed from play. The themes of betrayal and side swapping would be so fun!

Victoria Royal

can I just say that Lou’s moderation was a real treat! I love when history Lou really comes out, he’s so insightful. I can really see why he and brennan are friends, they both hold this unique joy in curiosity that I think really shined during this conversation!

witch of the watered garden

i know i’m late to watch so no credit if right — but my guess is similar! Bodie wants to play an extravagant murder mystery party! Bodie at the desk is fake for the trick he wanted to play, but then someone actually attempts to murder him

Hudson Connolly-Bright

The bear maxi is what would happen to ursalion if Suvi feel back in with steel

Jay

Pleaseeee do a famous chess match roleplay that'd be so fun!

Little Cheese Confettis

Coming in much later to say I did the same thing. Note that it was just “I”. My family did not enjoy playing with me 😂

Christine Malloy

My family was the same way even though I was incredibly open about my system and made no secret of what I was noting and when ^_^

J. Gro

I don't think anybody has ever finished a game of Monopoly. It ends after a weekend of playing with everyone being irritated except for the person who was winning, who just kinda feels bad.
